Because four hours 12 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 1: a night are not enough, we do this now, eight 13 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: days a week, eight days a week of slavy over 14 00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: the hot microphones of the podcast studio or the secret 15 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: location in the north Woods. And this spinoff of the 16 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: Overnight Show. We thank you for finding it, downloading, telling 17 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: a friend, and we are joined again by the main 18 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: West of the four oh five Little Along Feel good 19 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: about about a Saturday into a Sunday. And we had 20 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: Ryan Abraham yesterday talked a little USC and college football 21 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: as a whole, and uh yeah, now I need hold 22 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: on Are we gonna get killed here because that now 23 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 1: we talked mostly about USC football? So are we going 24 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: to get destroyed because people even I don't care about us? 25 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: Are we gonna get that negative feature? You always get 26 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: comments about people that wish you talk more college football, 27 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: though at at least it feels like it. Yes, that's true, 28 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: but the thing they usually bring up is my school. 29 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: Like the guy in Arkansas wants me to talk about 30 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: the Razorbacks, the the fellow in Alabamas like just talking 31 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: about the cripon Tide. The guy in Florida's like talking 32 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: about the Gators or something like that. And then that's 33 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: the problem. It's a it's a regional thing. But I now, 34 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: we'll find out how it does. I'll be interested and 35 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: if if people downloaded it and the numbers were good, 36 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: we'll have more college football. We don't talk a lot 37 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: of college football at all, as we mentioned all the 38 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: time on the Overnight Show. So it was great, No, 39 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: Ryan's good. It's kind of weird though we don't talk 40 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 1: as much because you know, it goes right behind the 41 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: national football in terms of the most watched live entertainment 42 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: throughout the entire year. You know, it goes NFL one, 43 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: then college football too, then everything else falls after that. Yeah, no, 44 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 1: I mean it's a popular sport. I know, the Alabama 45 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: game last weekend with Florida I believe won the day 46 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: on Saturday was the most watched vision program on Saturday, 47 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: and then on Sunday, the NFL was the most watched 48 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: on Sunday. So it's usually how that worked most weekend. 49 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: So yeah, and then people were racing to try to 50 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: find a television to go watch u c l A 51 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: Fresno State in the closing minutes on Saturday night, and 52 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: poof couldn't find it because it was stuck in the 53 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: Pack twelve network. Well couldn't find it. And then if 54 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 1: they found some Russian website with an illegal stream and 55 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: they turned the game on, it was game over. Gutty Bruins. 56 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: Remember Chip Kelly after they beat l s U. He said, 57 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: everyone knew we could we could do this. Everyone knew 58 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: we were going to do this. And did everyone on 59 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: the u u c l A team know they were 60 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: gonna go out and poop the bed against Fresno State? Also, Chip, 61 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: did they all know that if they there against goofball anyway? 62 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: Anyway on this podcast. Guess God we have you can 63 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: ram It all Day, you can ram It all Night, 64 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: the prequel the prequel to ram It All Day, ram 65 00:03:55,160 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: It all Night. We have crystal balls and obstacle course 66 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: and whatever else pops up, whatever else we can we 67 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: we could do. Let's get scientifical. There's a couple of 68 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: science stories. I read these science stories. I don't bring 69 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: them up all that much on the radio show, but 70 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: there's some stories in the science world that caught my 71 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: attention that we can talk about. So this there's a 72 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: lot of things going on, but I wanted to start 73 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: with Ramant all Day, Ramant all Night. I got the 74 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: confirmation the streak is about to end. I have not 75 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: been to a professional or college sporting event since March 76 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: of keeping my my entire life was dedicated to going 77 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: to professional sporting events. UH and I just I live. 78 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: I grew up by twenties. I spent at ballparks and 79 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: arenas and stadiums, and that was my entire life. And 80 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: then when everything shut down in UH. Even right up 81 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: until the shutdown, I was going to random games. I 82 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: think the last game I went to was a Sunday 83 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:06,119 Speaker 1: night Lakers game a few days before everything got shut down. 84 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: But I have not been since. I didn't want to 85 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 1: go when there weren't fans. I thought, what's the point 86 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: of going there's no fans there. And the schedule hasn't 87 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: really worked out this this past year with some different 88 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: things on the weekends I have had to do, so 89 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: I haven't been able to go to any any Dodger 90 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 1: games in person. So I got the email from the 91 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: l A Rams that the game tomorrow America's game of 92 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: the week. You know it's big because Joe Buck and 93 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman are going to be there. But I have 94 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: been approved, the gatekeepers have allowed me in, so I 95 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: will be in attendance watching Tom Brady. I would say 96 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: his final game in l A. But Tom is gonna 97 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: play on their seven or eight years, so who the 98 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: hell knowns? But Brady will be there and I'll be there. 99 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 1: Bruce arians will be there, Sean McVeigh, the Great, Matthew Stafford. 100 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: You can ram it all day, you can ram it 101 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: all night. I'm excited. I've seen the stadium so far, stadium, 102 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: or as Troy Aikman called it, sci fi stadium. I'm 103 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: excited to see it in person and I'm a little 104 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: concerned about the logistics of it. I'm gonna get there. 105 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: They're getting there early, is no problem. I'll forego sleep 106 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: on Saturday and the Sunday. But the the issue is 107 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: getting out of there because I need time to kind 108 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: of digest everything that happened in the NFL. And I 109 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: can watch the games on my laptop and I can 110 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: put up a few games on my computer and watch 111 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: them there, So I'm not worried about that, but I'm 112 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: worried about getting out there because Eddie was telling me 113 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: horror stories about the traffic, and some other people I 114 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: know that have been to that stadium have said that 115 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: it's great, it's beautiful, it's wonderful, but they did a 116 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: terrible job of planning on how that mass of humanity 117 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: is going to get out of the stadium. So I'm 118 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 1: a little concerned about that. But I might have to 119 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: leave early, which I would hate to do because one 120 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: of the cool things about when you're in the media, 121 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: when you're a blowhard in the media, they let you 122 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: go down on the field the last like four or 123 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: five minutes I think of the fourth quarter or something 124 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 1: like that. I forget how long it is but you 125 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: get to go down and stand on the sidelines at 126 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: an NFL game and it's awesome. It's uh, and they 127 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: don't let you in the locker rooms anymore. They banned 128 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: that because at COVID. So it's not like the only 129 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: reason I would stay would be to go down on 130 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: the field and maybe I could possibly get an interview 131 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: or something on the field, but I can't. There's just 132 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: an interview room. So it's not like I can go 133 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: and say, all right, I'm gonna go interview Tom Brady 134 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: in the locker room. You know, no, I can't do that. Uh. 135 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: You know that that you know that won't won't be allowed. 136 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: So that's my big news here. You can ram it 137 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: all day, you can ram it all night. I'm looking forward. 138 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: I will test out the press box food, guest gun. 139 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: I have not had press box food and over a year. 140 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: I think we're what a year and a half? I 141 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: believe something like that. I think you I think you 142 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: misspoke a little bit too, because you said it could 143 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: be Tom Brady's last game in Los Angeles, but you 144 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: never know, he could be making a return in a 145 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: couple of months from now. Well, no, I I said, 146 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: I said it could be his last game, but they'll 147 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: play like another seven years or something. But even if 148 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: he doesn't, he know, if he retires this season, it 149 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: could be at the end of the Super Bowl. Um, yeah, 150 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: I'm not allowed to go to the Super Bowl. You 151 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: know what. I guess I a deal list. I can't 152 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: get it. I can't go. I'll ask the NFL. I say, hey, NFL, 153 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: can I go, and they'll you know, I'll be like, no, 154 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: you can't go. Yeah, okay, okay, Okay, there you go. 155 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: There's there's something holy about standing on the field. To 156 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 1: play on the field of combat. Well, it's a baseball 157 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: diamond going on the ice. I know you don't skate, 158 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: but um, the gridiron. There's something so cool about being 159 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: on the field that it's almost I don't know how 160 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 1: you get when you go into Logan or do you 161 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: go into LaGuardia, But I feel like there's a burst 162 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 1: of energy from me when I head into New York 163 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: or Boston. I get like that in d C two. 164 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: But when I get onto the field, whether it's for 165 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: football or or baseball, man, there's just something that kind 166 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: of brings me back to my my youth and my 167 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: college days. Of playing that It's it's hard to describe, 168 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: but it's always like that you're you're you feel like 169 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: you're on the freeway, don't you Like you just feel 170 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: like you wore a car in the number two lane 171 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: and everyone else is just flying by you in the 172 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: fast lane. Yeah. The thing that I like a is 173 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: just the like looking around and seeing all the especially 174 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: at the big NFL stadium. You see all the seats 175 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: and you're like, you imagine, like what if I was 176 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: playing quarterback? Yeah, what I do? And then the other 177 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: it used to be the smell of the grass, I 178 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: guess now it's the smell of the turf, the fake 179 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 1: rubber turf that they have on the field that at 180 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 1: most of these stadiums, including the stadium uh in l A. 181 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: But I just want to see the whole thing, like, 182 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: but yeah, it's it's cool. It's a cool vibe. And 183 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: I think I can I can get my fix because 184 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: the Rams sent me a message they said you can 185 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: be on the field pre games, So I don't I'll 186 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: do maybe I'll do that and then post game I'll 187 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: just take off and try to to beat the traffic 188 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: in the Rams. You know how good the Rams are. 189 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: They'll probably be up by a couple of touchdowns by 190 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: the time of the fourth. Yeah, they were like that 191 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: last week and against Indianapolis and a and a quarterback 192 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: with two spring and ankles. Yeah, I was really impressive 193 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: last week. Um yeah, okay, shut up. Yeah, I expect 194 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: more of that. To say, Matthew Staffords looked exceptional in 195 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: two weeks. It's uh. I mean yeah, I'm missing peace 196 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: and that that high powered offense that needed a couple 197 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: of blown calls by Chicago in week one. Yeah, I 198 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't feel like good about a couple 199 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: of blown calls. They won the game by twenty points 200 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: having a couple of blown calls. You got busted coverage 201 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: in the first touchdown of the game, and he daunt 202 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: throws a bad ball in the end zone. Well, is 203 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 1: it the Rams fault? The Bears are bad at their job? 204 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: How is that their fault? No, but I mean the angles. 205 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: The Bears game back and beat the Bengals. The Bengals 206 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: are beating the Vikings, who are supposed to be a 207 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 1: playoff contender, So make your mind up on this thing. 208 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: Vikings didn't look good last week either. Is gonna torch 209 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: them up and down the field. They're Tyler Murray looked exceptional. 210 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: Your delusion. The Vikings won that game. They're idiot kicker 211 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: missed the kick. They were in position. The Vikings should 212 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: be two and all. Should the first game, uh Cook 213 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: fumbles the ball and gives the game to Cincinnati. And 214 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: then last week, the idiot kicker Joseph shanks a kick. 215 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: So no, I mean the Cardinals are a joke. I mean, 216 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: let's be honest. You and Tyler Murray at the end 217 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: of that game, so good exception was disaster at the 218 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: You're proving you didn't watch the end of that game. 219 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 1: He allowed the Minnesota Vikings to come back down the 220 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: field and with his shoddy play at the end of 221 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: the of the game, there uh to to come back 222 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: and be in position to win the game. And that 223 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: proves you did not watch the game. If you are 224 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: saying anything different. The last let me give you the 225 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: last four possessions of the Arizona Cardinals and a game 226 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: that was a shootout. Uh drive started at the Arizona 227 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: eighteen yard line ends on a Alligator Arms Murray interception. 228 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: That's a turnover right there. Uh So the Vikings get 229 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: that turnover, go back down the field, get a field goal, 230 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: so that's three points courtesy of alligator arms Murray. Cardinals 231 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: get the ball right back after that, the drive goes 232 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: five plays and a punt. Okay, fine, Vikings get the 233 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: ball back. They screw up, they don't make anything happen. 234 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,599 Speaker 1: They give the ball back to Arizona. Another opportunity to 235 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: run out the clock, win the game. Arizona goes down, 236 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: they kick a field goal, they don't run out the clock, 237 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: ball goes back to the Vikings. Uh. They go down 238 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: and uh and and screw up. Cardinals get another chance, 239 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: another chance to run the clock out. Three plays, three 240 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 1: plays and a punt, and then the Vikings go down 241 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: and missed the what should have been the game winning 242 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: field goal. Last four drives, interception, punt, punt, field goal garbage, 243 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: absolute garbage from Colin Murray. And he gets to ask 244 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: because he's a fun size quarterback and he feel bad 245 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 1: because he's a little guy, but he was garbage at 246 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: the end of that game, and all those touchdowns and 247 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: all those drives that were razzled dazz and all that 248 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 1: the beginning of the game, at the end of the 249 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: game when it was winning time. He didn't make plays, 250 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: and the only reason they won that game was because 251 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: I've been competenced by the Vikings, the kicker, the Vikings 252 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: going a wall. Well, last I checked, Minnesota was actually 253 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: up in this game seven and so Murray brought them back. 254 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: And you failed to mention they threw for over four 255 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 1: hundred yards in that game, had four total touchdowns in 256 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 1: the contest, and the second half there were deadlock ten 257 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: ten points apiece on each side. For as bad as 258 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: he might have been for the final four possessions of 259 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: that game, they were dead even in terms of offensive output. 260 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:12,719 Speaker 1: So who cares. You're playing four quarters sixty, Arizona two 261 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: and Arizona because of him. The guy has account for 262 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: eight touchdowns the last two weeks. You are delusional. You 263 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: were out of your bloody mind. They're out there too, 264 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: because Tennessee didn't show up. They were had a dereliction 265 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: of duties in game one. Everyone might problem when the 266 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: Titans showed up against Seattle. They beat Seattle. They we're 267 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: not ready to start. Just made the same argument with 268 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears. What are you talking about. It's a 269 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: different situation here. This is different. Stay focused here. You 270 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: gotta stay focused. It's a bad job by you. You 271 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: should at least except the fact that the NFC West 272 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: is gonna be a dog fight. I don't think it. 273 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna be a dog fight. This 274 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: is still in the feeling out process. And then the 275 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: Cardinals have no depth and you don't under daying that 276 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: because you don't get the nuance of football. But they 277 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: will have any depth and once the injuries start piling up, 278 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: and they will pile up. It happens to everybody, they 279 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: will be exposed. And Kyler Murray he's he can't make 280 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: it through an entire season healthy. He's you're starting quarterback. 281 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: It's like five teams with winning records, Like, what are 282 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: you talking about? Yes, because he just played for a 283 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: bad team. If you played for being good, dude, who cares. 284 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: That's the basic. That's the big dummy teams and you're 285 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: on When you play good teams and you're on a 286 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: bad team, you lose. Listen to news flash, news flash, 287 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning went to a bad team. That's why he 288 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,119 Speaker 1: was number one the NFL draft, and then he elevated 289 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: said bad teams because he's a great quarterback. Matthew Stafford 290 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: is never debating his performant. Matthew Stafford's elevating his performance 291 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: with the l A Rams, and he has been the 292 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: story of the season. Everyone agrees he's the m v 293 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: P right now in the NFL. Has been electric. He's 294 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: got my vote for the m v P. He's been 295 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: and outstanding and and the knowledgeable football people will tell 296 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: you that Matthew Stafford is the m v P after 297 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: two weeks in the NFL and quarterback in the NFC 298 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: right now, Yes, he is. Who's better, Kyler Murray is 299 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: He's put up all the numbers, better numbers than n 300 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: I just gave you the I just I laid it 301 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: all out. Kyler Murray screwed up that game. The Vikings 302 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: should have won the game because of Kyler Murrays encompass. 303 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: He loses the m v P the first two weeks 304 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 1: because of that. He's got more, he's got more passing yards, 305 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: and he's got more touchdowns than than Matthew Stafford. What 306 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: are you talking about? Matthew Stafford heroically leading the Rams 307 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: back on the road in a hostile environment with snavvy 308 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: confident play at the quarterback position because you can ram 309 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: it all day, you can ram it all night. What 310 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: a what a gutsy performed gumption is word I will 311 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: use to describe Matthew Stafford at the end of that game, 312 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: because the Rams, right, there was the mistake, there was 313 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: the fumble after that for play seventy yard drive, touchdown, 314 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: twelve play, fifty five yard drive, field goal, and then 315 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: the Colts while that was going on, they had a punt, 316 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: a field goal and an interception and then their last 317 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 1: drive with the guy with two bad ankles the end 318 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: of the game. That was it. But Matthew Stafford, my god, 319 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: what a gift, What a gift? And wait till he 320 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: beats Tom Brady. Well, he won't get credit for beating 321 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 1: tom Brady because Tom bradyill get hurt this weekend against 322 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,959 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald and then people will lose them. But how 323 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: upset is the NFL gonna be when Tom Brady is 324 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: unable to play against the Patriots in week number four? 325 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: He's so upset You're rooting for a guy to get injured. 326 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: That's unbelievable, that's embarrassing. Didn't sound like I'm rooting when 327 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: you always root when it's your team. The Rams, No, no, 328 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: I'm just really pointing out what I see here in 329 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: my crystal Ball and I'm just pointing out at speaking 330 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: of crystal Ball's guest guns. Speaking of crystal Balls. We 331 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: move on on the podcast here and as we get 332 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: some not you, but as we get settled into the 333 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: humble abode we have been living in, it is is 334 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 1: still a construction zone. Like to thank the fine contractors 335 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 1: that have decided this is not a priority for them 336 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: to finish this job. And so with with the the 337 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 1: wife here, the interior designer, and she is trying to 338 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 1: make the house a home, all right, trying to make 339 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: it at home, and so putting her touch on the 340 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: renovated Mallard mansion. So now I am pretty hands off. 341 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: As long as it's not horrifically disgusting, I will technically 342 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: and I just look the other way. I'll ignore it. 343 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: I have a theory on houses right near the ocean 344 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: or beautiful views like city views, and things in the 345 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 1: house like rugs and chandeliers. My theory is, don't spend 346 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: too much money on any of that stuff. You don't 347 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: have to live with a view of the Pacific Ocean 348 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: in Malibu. You don't have to live with a penthouse 349 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 1: apartment in Manhattan looking over Gotham in Central Park. And 350 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: the reason, in the same reason you don't need to 351 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: spend a fortune on a on a rug or a 352 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: chandelier is after a certain amount of time, you will 353 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: stop looking out the window at the ocean, you will 354 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: stop looking at the window at Central Park. You will 355 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: not even notice the rug, the chandelier. It just becomes 356 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 1: background noise, becomes elevator music. So what's the point. That's 357 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: always been my And it's true. I I've have friends 358 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: that have lived in beautiful places with great views, and 359 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 1: I'll go over to their place and I'll be like, Wow, 360 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: this is amazing, and they don't even look. They're like 361 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: they're so used to just you know, that's that's there, 362 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:07,719 Speaker 1: that's becomes normal. That's my advice to life. So that's like, 363 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 1: that's that's so asked backwards, Like that's like that's like 364 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: telling somebody that they shouldn't buy a Ferrari or a 365 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: Porsche because after a while, it's just it's a vehicle 366 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 1: with with tires that rotate. Well, you get that's that's 367 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: that logic is so stupid. It's not the it's it's 368 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: the it's the ability to have that opportunity and to 369 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: have that location and have that scenery that you capitalize 370 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 1: on it. And as you know in this game, real 371 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: estate and location is everything in real estate. So to 372 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: be in that said position means not only that you 373 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,239 Speaker 1: have a great view or a great area, but then 374 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: you also can build a wealth out of that. I don't, 375 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,719 Speaker 1: I don't, I can't fathom. That's like saying that you 376 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: only want to engage with a woman for her looks initiative, 377 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: but then after a while those things just fade away 378 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 1: and you don't care anymore how she looks. Is that? 379 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: Is that how you like? Concept? Concept is the same though, 380 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: when you're with someone, you know, in theory, if you 381 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: marry someone, you're with them till they die. When they 382 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: their beauty is fleeting, and it's not you're not going 383 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: to be as beautiful as you were when you were 384 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: twenty five years old when you're sixty five years old. 385 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: That's just you can't keep up. Yeah, but you can 386 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: keep up, but you're not listen. I'm telling you you 387 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 1: are completely right now. I didn't mention real estate, but 388 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: I'm talking about if you buy a house because oh 389 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: my god, that view is amazing. I'm gonna I'm gonna 390 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: go out and look at that view. It is fake, 391 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: it is phony. It didn't happen. It didn't happen because 392 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: you're right. You you do that, and after a while, 393 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: you just it just kind of you fades away over 394 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: a certain amount of time, and you know, look, you 395 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 1: should take your advice when you go to Costco next time, 396 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: you know what, because you only need to have the 397 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: food that you want to consume at home. Like you 398 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: don't need the samples at Costco anymore because those things 399 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: like don't they don't have them anymore. They so my 400 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: life has been fine without them. Life. Life is all 401 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: about indulging, Ben, And so if you can indulge on 402 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: a great piece of scenery, whether it's beachfront property or 403 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: a city view, you must do that. Well, it's wrong 404 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: with you. That's like to say you can never have 405 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: enough barbecue sauce on chicken fingers or anough salt on 406 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: French friends. What's wrong with you? Now? Again? Guess the 407 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 1: concept is simple when you buy. If I bought a 408 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 1: house with a view of the ocean, I would love 409 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 1: the house. I would think it's great and wonderful. But 410 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 1: after a few months I'd still like it. But I wouldn't. 411 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 1: I would be up staring at the ocean every day 412 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: because that's just there every day. If you're used to it, 413 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 1: you know, it's just you know, it's just this out 414 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: you know what. This sounds exactly like the first month, 415 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: maybe month and a half of the fifth that with 416 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: Ben Maller, like you had me on. You're excited about 417 00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 1: having me on as a producer. Then after a while 418 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 1: just like so maybe you're just taking the view and 419 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: me for granted. It's just like, yeah, I just are 420 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: you turning this into at about you? How you're west 421 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: four good? How do you take this stuff for granting? 422 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 1: You gotta enjoy these things. You work at a stressful job. 423 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: You are you are hired to get fired. So if 424 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 1: you could have beachfront property, of course they think that 425 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: you would value it a lot more than if you 426 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 1: didn't at all. You should try it. How about that. Again, 427 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: I'm not saying I wouldn't enjoy it. I'm just saying 428 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: in life in general, after a while, and maybe you 429 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: don't know this because you're you're you're the pompous ass 430 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: over there. You can take your arrogance, but uh, in general, 431 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: you're not going to have the joy. After a while, 432 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: you get used to things, things become normal, they become stale. 433 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: That's what happens. But anyway, that's not side tracked here. 434 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: It's not about that's not about this. I'm just my 435 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: point was when you put expensive things in, it just 436 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: doesn't really after a while, it just becomes part of 437 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: the house and people don't really pay that much attention 438 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: to it. But my wife had, really she had these 439 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: wonderful ideas about getting this amazing chandelier. Right, So she's 440 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: been trying to find this chandelier that really popped and 441 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 1: sings to her and you know, you can see angels 442 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: dancing when you see the So after months of searching, 443 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: she finally found one that caught her eye. And it 444 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 1: was pretty pricey, pretty pricey, and but it was good looking. 445 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: You know, I had a bunch of these crystal balls 446 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: and you know, it's all put together and it was 447 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: a masterpiece of for a chandelier. It had the Rasma test. 448 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 1: So we ordered it and we they said, well, okay, 449 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 1: that's gonna be delivered. We don't have it at the 450 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: chandelier store. So we're gonna have it delivered to the 451 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: to the Mallard mansion in a few days. We said, okay, fine, 452 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: so the Mallard Mansion, it arrives the chandelier and here's 453 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 1: a multiple choice. All right, multiple choice question. A. The 454 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 1: chandelier was broken when it showed up. B it was 455 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: missing parts. Uh see it had the Rubik's cube effect 456 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: or D none of the above. What do you think 457 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: it was? I'm gonna say, see, uh, that is correct. 458 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: That is the Rubik's cube effect, as I call it. 459 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: The answer is is a C H that you needed 460 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: a PhD to build this? This thing it was and 461 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: I'm not exaggerating here, in hundreds of pieces the chandelier, 462 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: each crystal ball and there were hundreds of these things 463 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: on the chandelier. All right, So I got a question 464 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: for you. Then, did your wife order that specifically knowing 465 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: that so that way you guys could spend quality time 466 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: assembling it together. No. No, In fact, we were under 467 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,479 Speaker 1: the assumption that this would be showing up at our 468 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: door because it cost a lot of money already constructed. 469 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: Because why would spend that amount of money if it's 470 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: like going to ikea and you have to build a dresser. 471 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: What's the point anyway? So they had these little chicken 472 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: scratch instructions and I looked at this thing and I'm like, no, 473 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not building this thing. And you know, 474 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: she's like, I don't have time to build this thing. 475 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: We spent a lot of money on it. So we 476 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 1: went back to the store. My wife said, hey, can 477 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: you build this thing? We spend a lot of money 478 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: on it. It's beautiful, it's what we want, but we 479 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,919 Speaker 1: don't we can't build it. We just don't have the time, 480 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: nor do we have the desire to do it. And 481 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: they said, sure, no problem, we have somebody that can 482 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: help you out. Uh. And then and they'll build it 483 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: and look great, they'll come to your house. It'll be wonderful. 484 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: And said, okay, wonderful. Uh. And then they said how 485 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: much that would cost to have the chandelier built? How 486 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: much do you think it would cost to have the 487 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 1: chandelier built? This is an estimate that we got from 488 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 1: the people we bought them from. UM say, I'm gonna 489 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 1: say four fifty Uh No, how about six hundred dollars 490 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: to build a chandelier. So we politely declined, and we'll 491 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: be returning the chandelier and let you know that it 492 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: is a scam. Now they claim the only the only 493 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: way they can ship the chandelier is because it's made 494 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: out of crystal, they can only ship it in pieces, 495 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: which is fine. Just let people know when they're buying 496 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: it that you're going to get it and need to 497 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: spend an additional amount of money to have the thing built. 498 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: I get it. He wanted to make the sale. But 499 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 1: what a bait and swift. Oh, we'll have to find 500 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: a different chandelier that's already assembled. That's already assembled. So 501 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: no crystal balls at least not seven million different crystal 502 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: balls all put together there, at least not at our house. 503 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: All right, the the obstacle course, Yes, John, the obstacle course. 504 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: Now this is another one of these stories. It's a 505 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: life of Mallard. And we were greeted with a big 506 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: surprise in addition to the crystal balls. Should I name 507 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: should I know? Should I name the the company here? 508 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: Should I name the company that? Yes? Of course, Yes, 509 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: General Electric g E is the name of the company. 510 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 1: So uh. We had purchased a dishwasher for the Mallard 511 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 1: mansion and it took a while to get it shows 512 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: up at the house. UH, wife signed it, signed for it. 513 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: Contractor said, we can't install it for a few days 514 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: because they're on contractor time and so it's not ready 515 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: to be put in. We can't put it in right now. 516 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: So by the time the contractor opened the box for 517 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: the dishwasher, much to their amazement, they discovered that somehow 518 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: while it was being delivered, a passive dent was in 519 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: the top of the dishwasher. It had been damaged in shipping. 520 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: So we UH were like, whoa, what I mean this is? 521 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: I mean it was in the box and couldn't open 522 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: the box because it was not ready to be put 523 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: anyone open the box before anyway. So we called the 524 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: place we got it from, a big box store owned 525 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: by the owner of the Atlanta Falcons UH and told 526 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: them the issue, and that began a wild goose chase. 527 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: And the wild goose chase was everyone and their uncle 528 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: passing the buck. Uh. They said, well, you've got to 529 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: call the delivery company. So called the delivery company. They 530 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: of course covered there, took us and said it was 531 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: not their problems since we only had forty eight hours 532 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: to report an issue. The distre wasn't put in for 533 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 1: like a week after it was delivered because it was 534 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 1: not ready to be put in. They then said, we'll 535 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: call General Electric, called ge back, big company, they'll take 536 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: care of you. So we called the ge back and 537 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: they say, it's not our problem, not our problem. So 538 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: it's a it's been a daunting task, tremendous customer service 539 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: at all these companies. Unless there was not it is 540 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: cover your ass, one on one. So what a scam? 541 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: What a scam. So we now have a dishwasher that 542 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: cannot be installed because the dent is so large that 543 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: you can't put it in. It won't fit because it's 544 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: a kind of a it's hard to describe here, but 545 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: the top of it is dented in, which means the 546 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: other parts of it pinning up and it won't work. 547 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: So if anybody wants a broken dishwasher which cost a 548 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: couple of thousand bucks, you know, whatever it was, it 549 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: was that much, but it was it was a fair 550 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: amount of money. It can be hers if you want 551 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: it is. It's it's a joke too, because these these companies, 552 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: you know, it's like listen, do you deliver stuff and 553 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: this you can't exactly go pick this thing up these days, 554 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: everything's delivery, delivery, delivery, and then you funk up one 555 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: of your guys fox up, and then you can't even 556 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: you know, take care of the prop. I'm kind of customers. 557 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: I'll never buy another G product the rest of my life. 558 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: They've done. They're dead to me. It's over. So congratulations, Yeah, congratulations. 559 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: Did you elevate it to a supervisor or a manager? Oh? Yeah, 560 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: he went through the whole chain of command, you know, 561 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: everyone it passes the buck and they're like, okay, let 562 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: me let me get my manager on. Then the managers 563 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: like okay, let me let me go to this other person. 564 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: You know. They go through the whole thing and everyone 565 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: no one collapse at the end. It doesn't have happending. 566 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: So anyway, uh, what else do we have? And you 567 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: gonna do a little scientifical should we get the heck 568 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: out of here? What do you think? Guess what?

It's people 574 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: are assholes. Companies are shitty. They don't have service, home 575 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 1: depot in general electric in these companies. I mean, that's 576 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: how they do business. You know, that's on them. You know, 577 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 1: just remember that when you buy products in these places 578 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: that they don't always take care of if something goes wrong. Hey, 579 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: how in your is your kitchen done yet? No? It's 580 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: not done. We don't have an oven.

Well, here's good news. We'll get 599 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: to let's get scientific. A couple of stories caught my attention. 600 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: Scientist scientists have used Japanese not weed whatever that is, 601 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: to make night trade free bacon. So they've determined now 602 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: that using this not weed, that they can make foods 603 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: that have traditionally been bad process meats like bacon, and 604 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: they can make it make it healthy or at least healthier. 605 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: Are they reduced in the lab, they were able to 606 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 1: reduce the creation of compounds in the body that are 607 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: linked to cancer. And so they claim to use this 608 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: technology and fine tune it. And it's a plant. It's 609 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 1: considered an invasive species in a lot of places, but 610 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: it's native to Japan, and they have used it to 611 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: form a healthier red meat. Yeah, it looks um, it 612 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: almost looks like mint in some ways, the way that 613 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 1: it's the way that it's uh shape, it's a fast 614 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: growing plant. Feared by homeowners, it says, feared by homeowners. 615 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:53,280 Speaker 1: But uh so, anything that can make processed meats healthier, 616 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: I fully support. What else? See page down. Pretty Oh, 617 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: here's a fun fact about human beings. They determined I 618 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: don't know how they determined this, that prehistoric human beings 619 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: made it with their cousins three percent of the time. 620 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 1: Today it's ten.
